“In terms of statelessness, Roma are
without a doubt the most over-represented ethnic group in Europe by numbers of
stateless children. We already face enough problems from anti-Gypsyism in its
many guises across the continent - being born without a nationality means our
children are even further denied social, educational and healthcare services, as
well as being stigmatised and pushed further towards the margins of society. It
is time for governments to take responsibility and end this harmful situation
for the next generation.” - ERRC
President Ðorđe Jovanović
